Technical Information

The system uses modern web technologies for optimal performance:

  • PHP 5.6.8 for server-side processing
  • MySQL for data storage
  • Responsive CSS for multi-device compatibility
Browser Compatibility: The system works best in modern browsers including Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Edge. Some features may require user interaction to start audio playback due to browser autoplay policies.
